Lesson learned: Stay at least three nights!






Recently, my husband and I vacationed at a B & B in Magnolia Springs, Alabama. It truly was an experience in Southern Hospitality. The house was over 100 years old, and we received a personal tour of it, followed by staying in a comfortable room, eating scrumptious, healthy breakfasts, relaxing on the front porch and spending time in the nearby vicinity. We even got to enjoy a resident peacock who moved there after Hurricane Ivan!

The only problem was that once my husband relaxed it was time to go. The first morning, despite being 9 miles from the ocean in sweltering June heat, he was in long pants and on one of his phones doing business. Morning number two found him much more relaxed--in shorts and off the phone. Unfortunately, it was time to pack up and head home. Lesson learned: stay at least three nights!

Note: I recommend this location to those traveling without children.
